Green Smoothie Delight

January 23, 2020 by April Leave a Comment

When it's cold as bleep out, it can be hard to get excited about green smoothies. It's like I just wanna be all chili-stew-and-soup-ing when the snow starts to fly and the temps are frigid. But at the same time, a green smoothie can be a hit of nutrition, veggies and refreshment when it seems...

Easy Kale Chips

November 19, 2019 by April Leave a Comment

Finally, finally, finally I figured out how to make kale chips {cue the hallelujahs!} This was after many attempts of trying to get the right combination of the kale, oil, salt and time and temp of the oven.

My mom has always made the most uh-maaaazing cranberry bread. It was (and still is) tangy, tasty and oh-so delicious. When it gets into our house, it's basically gone in 5 minutes flat. No joke. My husband and I fight over who get the biggest and/or last slice of this delicious loaf. In search of...

I’ve always wanted to make raw, no-bake energy bites or protein balls. They looks so delish and can be made from some pretty nutritious ingredients – ground flax, nut butters, chia seeds, protein powder, pumpkin seeds, etc. So I’m on a quest to find at least a couple easy recipes that can go into the...
